15-20 NFL Teams Contact Ex-Tarheels DE Michael McAdoo

Fifteen to 20 NFL teams have contacted former University of North Carolina defensive end Michael McAdoo in advance of today's NFL supplemental draft. McAdoo is an intriguing prospect because at 6-foot-7, 245 pounds, the rangy, athletic pass rusher can operate as a 3-4 outside linebacker or a 4-3 defensive end and still has the frame to bulk up and add additional pounds. "The first thing I bring to the table is passion about the game," McAdoo told Scout in a telephone interview. "I'm very confident. I love the game of football. I’m somebody who works hard and goes hard every down. I can bring a lot to whatever team decides to pick me on Monday.â€￾ "I like both positions. I like rushing the passer. It really doesn’t matter. I just want to play football wherever they put me. McAdoo had 29 tackles, 10 for losses and 3 1/2 sacks in two years while playing in a rotation. McAdoo was ruled ineligible for last season due to academic fraud and sued the university and the NCAA seeking damages, alleging that he was deprived of the opportunity to succeed and that the NCAA based its decision on incorrect factual information. His request for an injunction was ultimately denied, though. "Last year, it was just hard because just waking up every day knowing you can’t play the game that you love the most," McAdoo said. According to reports, McAdoo was found guilty by the student honor court of submitting a paper that didn't properly credit someone else's work on a works cited page. "I'm not a bad person," McAdoo said. "I love the game of football. The people that I hung out with and associated with they assumed I was just like them guys. "It was guilt by association. I'm a good guy. They can check my background and know that I don't have any issues off the field. They just have to get to know me."

McAdoo and/or King may be next.......
